Caleb and I are only having a three-month engagement. Crazy, right? A few of you have reached out and asked why we chose to have such a short engagement, and today I thought I’d tell you that story :) Why We’re Having a Three-Month Engagement… In November 2019, my apartment complex put a notice on the door of my roommate and my apartment that our lease was going to be up in January and if we were going… Read more »
I had an encounter this past Saturday. that made me remember how weird Caleb and I are because we don’t live together. He and I found our wedding bands on Saturday! As I bought Caleb’s ring, I had to tell the attendant my billing address. When it was his turn, she asked, “Same address?” He said, “No,” and started telling her his address. Then the lady looked at us, surprised, “Y’all have been together practically forever and you still don’t… Read more »
Caleb and I got engaged on October 24th :) I knew it was coming soon because we had bought a ring together about a month before he proposed. Today I want to write about our ring shopping experience. In July 2019, I asked Caleb not to propose until he was 100% positive I would say yes. I didn’t want to not feel ready for engagement and have to tell him no. He agreed and said we could go ring shopping… Read more »

Eek! Where to even begin?? If you’re new around here, start off by reading about how Caleb and I didn’t date. Then read the post “So There’s This Guy” to find out how he asked me to be his girlfriend. And if you REALLY want to get personal, go read the post “Transitioning from Singleness to Dating” to read a series of journals from when we first started dating LOL! Okay, so now that we have the backstory out of… Read more »
And Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight, The clouds be rolled back as a scroll; The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend, Even so, it is well with my soul. -It Is Well With My Soul, by Horatio Spafford About a month ago, my church met in person for the first time in 22 weeks.

YOU GUYS MY BESTEST BEST FRIEND IS ENGAGED!!! I cannot believe it and am experiencing so many conflicting emotions. All of which I’ll probably record later in a blog post… because that’s how I roll lol! The second my BFF texted me that she and her man were looking at rings, I freaked out and cried because it hit me that this marks the end of an era. The next day, I got super excited and started looking for engagement… Read more »
The wait for the end of the Coronavirus is stressful. Can I get an amen? “How are you doing with the uncertainty of this time?” she asked me via FaceTime the other day. “Not well,” I admitted with a chuckle. “I wish I just knew when all this would end and life would go back to normal.” “How would knowing when it will end change what you’re currently doing?” she replied. I thought for a second. “I’d start a count-down,”… Read more »
